Innocence of Childhood

My eight year old asked me (while watching a PG movie at home), "How could that happen if they weren't married?" Ah, to have such a black and white view of the world. I told her rather bluntly, "they had sex." Her response made me smirk, "why would they do that?" I sighed internally knowing we haven't gotten to that bridge just yet. "Because it's fun." "Ewwww." Was her response and that works quite well for me. I just wonder how long that was of thinking will last. 23 march 2013
